  • High force ball bearings
    Patent number: 5249871
    Abstract: A ball bearing assembly with a spacer to prevent ball bearing failures. The spacer has a ring with a tongue that fits into a groove in a second spacer ring. One spacer ring is coupled to the outer ring of the ball bearing assembly and the other spacer ring is coupled to the inner ring of the ball bearing assembly. The spacer therefore allows relative rotation of the rings of the ball bearing assembly but prevents relative translation of the rings beyond a point which will damage the ball bearing assembly.
